Can I take more than 2 Tylenol PM? I still can't sleep only taking 2!?


Answer:
i strongly suggest valerian root. it's great at relieving stress and tension! you can get it over the counter and it's a great sleep aid! if you have one of those "racing minds" or "i can't turn my head off no matter how tired i am" then this will definitely help. you can find at your local grocery store in the pharmacy or herbal remedy section. start off taking 500-1000mgs, 30-45 minutes before you go to bed. now you can get this stuff in capsule form and it's 100% safe (my whole family has been taking it for years and our family doctor actually recommended it) however the only downside is that the more potent the brand your taking the stronger the smell. and this stuff smells AWFUL! but it's worth it. within 5-7 days you should notice a definite change in your sleep. WARNING! i strongly do not suggest that you take Tylenol PM and booze, in any form or combination. the main ingredient in Tylenol PM and Advil pm, or benadryl for that matter is diphenhydramine. here's what happens when you take it:
You can walk into a drugstore and choose from an array of sleep aids, offered without prescription. The main ingredient of over-the-counter sleeping pills is an antihistamine. Antihistamines are generally taken for allergies, but also make you feel very sleepy. Common over-the-counter sleep medications are Sleep-Eze, Sominex, Nytol, and Unison; they contain antihistamines such as:diphenhydramine hydrochloride,
diphenhydramine citrate, or
doxylamine succinate.
In general, over-the-counter sleep medications are not a good choice because they:Are not intended for long-term use.
Interfere with mental alertness during the day, so you should avoid driving and other similar tasks. You may also be at risk for falling asleep
Reduce the quality of your sleep by reducing time you spend in deep sleep.
Use over-the-counter sleep medications only for transient or short-term insomnia and in conjunction with changes to your sleeping habits. Be sure to pay attention to your body鈥檚 physical response to these sleep medications.i hope this helps!
I wouldn't if I were you. The problem with taking more than the recommended dosage is that it can cause liver damage.I would suggest trying something like Unisom and seeing if that helped.
Nyqil night time works way better
I take 3
Take a benedryl-that's in the tylenol pm to help you sleep. If you don't need the pain medicine,just try benedryl.Tylenol is hard on your liver.
Tylenol PM is tylenol and an antihystamine. I would recommend try 15 minutes of excersize before bed- even if it's right in your bedroom and you're just doing some crunches. If you've been using tylenol a lot you may want to switch. Try no tylanol and take 2 advil. They are both muscle relaxers, but made of different ingredients. Try not to take them together, and eat a little something with the advil. Maybe a glass of milk.
Hey!! Take 2 tylenol doesn't mean that it will help you to sleep(or it doesn't mean it didn't have effect if you don't sleep). 2 Tylenol is the optimum dose for the adult which the drug manufacturer has already calculated for that! Anyway, you should get some advice from pharmacist or the doctor if you felt like, there's something wrong after you take it. But you shouldn't take acetaminophen for along time because it provides toxicity to your liver!
